Many Buffalo Sabres fans expressed displeasure at Jack Eichel winning the Stanley Cup last night. But it shouldn’t change their perception of the trade.
Jack Eichel and his Vegas Golden Knights may have won the 2023 Stanley Cup Final, and that could sway public opinion over who won or who is winning the Jack Eichel trade.
